rogule.com VS bracket-lib

https://histordle.com/yeardle/ - Guess the year based on a list of historical events. https://histordle.com/popcultured/ - Same but pop culture. https://rogule.com/ - Mini dungeon, escape to win. https://moviedle.xyz/ - guess movie. https://squirdle.fireblend.com/daily.html - guess Pokemon. https://semantle.com/ - Figure out the word, it gives you hints based on how semantically similar the word is.

I recently started playing rogule, a daily mini roguelike setup in the Wordle style. It's a little too light for my liking but it's got me wondering what the best roguelikes are with daily runs?

Clojure - cool, I haven’t seen this in the wild for ages!

Hey all! I haven't written an update here for a few weeks but I've been tinkering away on Rogule improving it bit by bit. Here's a recent gif (of the new event modal feature).

Thanks for your interest, but the only thing I have to offer is Saturday sharing posts. I am terrible at writing about game development. Maybe the commit log could be of vaue interest? In general I tend to just throw a gif up on Twitter. Really I should heed your request and start putting this stuff into a blog on the website, thanks for the prod.

I think having to use a terminal is the scary part for many people. rltk/bracket-lib can be used to get a similar look and feel if that's what's important, but it is geared toward roguelikes.

Maybe bracket-lib from the amethyst authors? I‘m currently working through that book and find the library quite intuitive and simple to use. It started out as a toolkit for rouge-like games but has been getting more general. On that note, I recommend the hands-on-rust book which teaches rust concepts while building games with bracket-lib. As you have read the book, I‘m sure you would get through the first chapters quickly.

https://github.com/amethyst/bracket-lib has a great integration with Bevy, designed for exactly this sort of thing.

I've been doing some experiments with terminal based games and landed on https://github.com/amethyst/bracket-lib It's not exactly terminal based in the sense that it actually runs on OpenGL by default. But that's a plus imho because dealing with the bits of the terminal window that can change outside of your control (like fonts, window resize, etc) is a giant pita. It does let you swap the backend to run on crossterm if that's what you really want to do but if what you're after is the aesthetic like I am having bracket_lib handling all that makes life so much better.
